If you can't get rid of annoying telemarketers, you can at least make a profit off them. Under Federal law, they have to give you a written copy of their "Do Not Call" policy for free if you ask them to. If they don't, you can take them to court and sue them for a cool statutory $500. Here's a sample script for doing this from a guy who has sued several telemarketers over this violation and won.
